PUNE, INDIA

Project Management Software for Technology Teams in Pune

Pune builds engines and ships software within a few kilometers of each other, and hires a large share of both workforces straight out of its own colleges, so onboarding is as much a part of the job as delivery.

A manufacturing city that also runs a hiring pipeline

Pune's economy has always been anchored by automotive and auto-components manufacturing, and Hinjewadi has grown into one of the country's larger IT corridors alongside it. What makes Pune specifically different from a purely IT-driven city is the third piece: it's also one of India's biggest education hubs, and a large share of the region's engineering and IT hiring happens straight off campus, every year, on a schedule that doesn't move.

That combination creates a specific kind of pressure most project tools ignore. A production-linked delivery has almost no tolerance for slippage. A fresh graduate cohort needs structured onboarding at volume, every single year, without burning out whoever runs it. And both of those need to coexist with normal sprint work in the same company.

The usual dollar-pricing problem sits on top of all of it: a per-seat rate in USD that moves with the exchange rate and gets converted, awkwardly, into a rupee budget line every renewal.

ShipSprint prices in rupees, invoices with GST, and treats onboarding and delivery as two things that can share one system without either one being an afterthought.

Onboarding at volume, without a spreadsheet behind it

A company hiring twenty graduates a year, or two hundred, needs a checklist that repeats reliably rather than one somebody rebuilds each cycle from memory. That same repeatability matters on the manufacturing side of the business, where a supplier delivery or a production milestone can't slip without a cost that shows up the same week, not at the next retrospective.

ShipSprint's boards carry per-column WIP limits, so a team doesn't quietly accumulate more in-flight work, whether that's onboarding tasks or production-linked deliveries, than it can actually finish. Delivery forecasts are built from the team's own measured velocity, not an optimistic estimate typed in at kickoff, so a date drifting into risk surfaces weeks before it's due rather than on the day itself.

The education-hub side of Pune also means a lot of teams here are, on average, younger and earlier in their careers than in some other metros, which puts extra weight on making a tool easy to pick up without formal training. A board that behaves the way most people already expect a task list to behave saves real onboarding time across a large graduate intake, time that would otherwise go into explaining the tool rather than the job.

For teams across the company

One subscription for engineering, and everyone who hires around it

A Pune company running both manufacturing and IT rarely has the luxury of a single department to manage.

Engineering

Sprints, releases and cycle-time analytics for the software side, with GitHub branches moving cards and merged pull requests closing them automatically.

HR and recruitment

Candidate pipelines built for volume campus hiring, plus onboarding checklists that repeat cleanly every intake cycle instead of being rebuilt by hand.

Marketing and operations

Supplier coordination, recurring compliance tasks and campaign work, each in its own vocabulary, feeding into one company-wide view.

The owner

A command center spanning manufacturing, engineering and hiring at once, with a Monday digest that arrives without anyone assembling it.

Everyone opens to the same screen, campus hire or veteran

A graduate three weeks into onboarding and a ten-year engineer both open ShipSprint to the same "my day" screen: today's items, a time log that takes about five seconds, and one tap to say "I'm blocked", which pulls in the right person with context already attached instead of a new hire quietly sitting stuck for a day because they didn't know who to ask.

That consistency is worth more than it looks during a big intake cycle, when dozens of new starters are learning the company's tools at once. There's only one interface to teach, regardless of whether someone ends up on a manufacturing coordination board or a sprint board six months later.

Spread between Hinjewadi, the plant floor, and home

Very few Pune teams sit under one roof anymore. Engineering clusters around Hinjewadi, manufacturing coordination often sits closer to the plant, and a meaningful share of any team is working from home on a given day, with Mumbai's commute distance making the two cities feel closer on a call than in person. That spread is exactly what turns into a standing meeting nobody enjoys.

ShipSprint replaces most of that meeting with status that exists on its own: a card's position on the board is the status, a blocker gets raised in one tap with context attached, and capacity accounts for approved leave so nobody gets assigned a delivery on a day they're not actually working.

It also connects to Claude and ChatGPT, so a question like "who's behind on onboarding this cohort?" gets answered in plain language rather than a meeting invite.

What the chaos costs, worked out in rupees

Worth running with your own numbers rather than a vendor's estimate, especially since a manufacturing-adjacent team tends to underestimate how much time goes into re-confirming things that were never written down properly the first time:

people × hours lost per week × 4.33 weeks × (monthly salary ÷ 173 working hours)

A twenty-two person team on an average monthly salary of ₹58,000, losing three hours each per week to status chasing and re-running onboarding steps that weren't tracked properly the first time, is losing roughly ₹95,800 a month. The same twenty-two people cost ₹13,178 a month on Business. Recovering a fraction of that lost time already covers the subscription. The calculator on the home page runs the same formula against your own numbers.

Templates that fit a hiring machine, not just a sprint board

A company running heavy campus hiring alongside product engineering needs two genuinely different tools to feel native at once: a recruitment pipeline that can handle a large intake cohort without collapsing into spreadsheet chaos, and a sprint board that behaves like every engineer already expects it to. Engineering, HR, marketing and operations each get their own templates and vocabulary inside the same ShipSprint subscription, so HR isn't forced to describe a candidate stage using sprint terminology that was never built for it, and engineering isn't stuck looking at recruitment fields it doesn't need.

Your data, and the law it sits under

Every workspace is an isolated tenant, two-factor authentication is available to every user, and every administrative action is written to an audit log. The whole workspace exports as JSON whenever you want it to, which matters for a manufacturer that already answers to its own set of quality and compliance audits and doesn't want a vendor relationship to become another opaque dependency.

ShipSprint is built by Quantuva Technologies Pvt. Ltd., registered in Hyderabad, so support, billing and contracts sit under Indian law and inside Indian business hours. The security overview covers the detail, and the sub-processor list names every third party involved, useful if a hiring partner or a supplier asks.
